system will not allow a train to enter into the position that it did last week. the train operator themselves will have to take over control of the train and manually put that train into a position so they can stop the train themselves. in this case they want the human to actually take over for the technology that is out there. >> interesting. adam tuss for us live in silver spring out in front on this story. adam, thanks so much. in other news, baltimore police will soon become the largest police department in the country with a body camera program. the department will begin getting body cameras in may, and all officers will have them within two years. the police commissioner thinks the cameras will help the department focus on community policing. the program is expected to cost more than $11 million over five years. the city was pressured to get body cameras after freddie gray's death. the goal is to keep buses moving and on schedule.
